Answer:
A) 0.99413
B) 0.00022
Step-by-step explanation:
A) First of all let's find the total grading time from 6:50 P.M to 11:00 P.M.:
Total grading time; X = 11:00 - 6:50 = 4hours 10minutes = 250 minutes
Now since we are given an expected value of 5 minutes, the mean grading time for the whole population would be:
μ = n*μ_s ample = 42 × 5 = 210 minutes
While the standard deviation for the population would be:
σ = √nσ_sample = √(42 × 6) = 15.8745 minutes
To find the z-score, we will use the formula;
z = (x - μ)/σ
Thus;
z = (250 - 210)/15.8745
z = 2.52
From the z-distribution table attached, we have;
P(Z < 2.52) ≈ 0.99413
B) solving this is almost the same as in A above, the only difference is an additional 10 minutes to the time.
Thus, total time is now 250 + 10 = 260 minutes
Similar to the z-formula in A above, we have;
z = (260 - 210)/15.8745
z = 3.15
P(Z > 3.15) = 0.00022
A right triangle will be formed with 2.2 km as the hypotenuse, 0.5 degrees as the angle, and an unknown height (see attachment).
Recall the trigonmetric ratios sine, cosine, and tangent that can be used for right triangles.
Sin<span>θ = opposite side/hypotenuse
</span>Cos<span>θ = adjacent side/hypotenuse
</span>tan<span>θ = opposite side / adjacent side
</span>θ (theta) refers to the angle (not the right angle). In this case, θ is the given angle of 0.5°.
In this problem, you will use sine because there is a side opposite to the angle (the unknown side h) and the hypotenuse, and sine relates those two sides.
Let the variable h represent the unknown opposite side, the height.
sin(0.5°) = h / (2.2km)
h = (2.2km)sin(0.5<span>°)
h = 0.019 km
